if your looking at the front grill from the front of the truck cant you put it in front of the intercooler and just trim the grill back?

i already trimmed it to get the intercooler to fit in there right with running the powerstroke radiator and those two fans if i were to trim anymore the grill wouldnt look right, i know kenworth has a condensor that is like 9" wide by 30" long by 2" thick that i could use and mount below the intercooler and infront of the radiator, that would give me an excuse to build a beefy *** heavy duty front bumper

Go find one off a school bus that mounts under the body? They have electric fans and should be more than enough to cool for you.
